In morbid obesity, contour deformities of the abdomen are common after bariatric surgery and radical weight loss. Traditional abdominoplasty techniques often fail to maximally improve body contour in these cases because adjacent sites such as the hip rolls and flanks are not treated, leaving the patient with large lateral tissue redundancies and dog-ears. In an attempt to solve these challenging problems, the authors present the modified vertical abdominoplasty technique, a single-stage procedure that involves a combined vertical and transverse approach in which an "en bloc" resection of the redundant tissues is performed without undermining, drainage, or reinforcement of the abdominal wall. The latter is only carried out when diastasis and/or hernias are present, and Marlex mesh may be utilized when indicated. In patients with simultaneous large umbilical hernias and/or excessively long stalks, neoumbilicoplasty is recommended. A significant improvement of abdominal contour was obtained in the vast majority of patients because the resection design offers simultaneous treatment of both vertical and transverse tissue redundancies in the abdomen and neighboring regions, with more harmonic results when compared with purely vertical or transverse approaches. The modified vertical abdominoplasty technique is an easy, fast, and reliable alternative for treating these patients, with less intraoperative bleeding, reduced overall cost, and low morbidity rates. In selected cases, the technique is capable of offering excellent results in terms of contouring and maximizes the overall outcome of treatment protocols for these patients, who can then be integrated into normal life with heightened self-esteem, happiness, and productivity.
A educação no cárcere visa promover formação e tem o papel de contribuir para a ressocialização e reinserção do indivíduo na sociedade. Este trabalho tem como objetivos i) descrever as Políticas Educacionais brasileiras para a educação no cárcere e seu panorama no estado de São Paulo; ii) compreender a relevância de se educar dentro do cárcere, como forma de resgate da dignidade e da cidadania e iii) compreender o posicionamento da sociedade civil sobre a educação do sujeito provado de liberdade. Como método, esta pesquisa realiza o uma revisão documental e da literatura, faz um levantamento nos marcos legais em sítios governamentais e apresenta uma pesquisa de opinião da sociedade civil acerca da educação do preso. Os resultados demonstraram que na letra da lei essa educação existe, que a sociedade concorda que a educação auxilia a ressocialização, índices estatísticos demonstram que há infraestrutura para que ela se efetive, mas na prática a violência e criminalidade apresentam índices alarmantes, principalmente dos sujeitos das classes sociais mais vulneráveis.
